display may appear in black and white or green because the HD1000 is outputting a Component Video signal. This is normal. The following steps cover selecting the correct output signal. (Composite is normally a single yellow RCA jack on your TV. On the HD1000, the composite connector is shared with the “Y” component connector.)
1.Connect a composite video cable to the HD1000, making sure the cable is connected to the green output jack labeled “Y.”
Note: This is the Y ouput jack for Component video — it is a shared jack with Composite.
2.Connect the other end of the Composite cable to your display.
3.Turn on the display and select the input to which you have just connected the cable.
4.Connect the power cable to the back of the HD1000 and plug it into an electrical outlet.
5.You’ll see a Busy light blinking, and a startup graphic will appear on your screen. Once the HD1000 is fully started up, the Busy light will stop, the Power light will begin to blink and you will see the initial setup screen.

Note: The Power LED will change the number of times it blinks to correspond to the current mode as you change selections.
